Heart of Oak aka Jimmy Broomfield, is a singer songwriter from the New Forest, England. A born storyteller, Heart of Oak is the culmination of many years of learning and a craft that is honed, perhaps, if you'll forgive the cliche, even carved, from within. Jimmy took on the A-Z Questionnaire Challenge, read his answers below...
Feed Them To The Forest are a rock band from the North of England. Blending the emotionally charged sound of the late '90s Long Island punk rock scene with a distinctly British twist, FTTTF bring the genre up to date with an intense and energetic live show, laced with hooks, harmonies and anthemic melodies. The band took on the A-Z Questionnaire Challenge! Read their answers...
Newcomers ICYMI are gearing up to release “Get Out” on the 17th September. Luckily you can listen to the track right here! This tune garners huge pop punk influence with the likes of Blink 182, Paramore and All Time Low all springing to mind. This band is infectious and boy do they shine on this track!
For our first band of the week, it has to be a band that I have literally seen over thirty times: Altered Sky.
Upon completion of the bands first official tour, writing began for what would have been a third EP. During this process it became evident the bands musical direction was moving towards something new, a brand which didn't fit the style they had built. It was then decided that they would start again from scratch and of the new alias; Better Days.

Rounding the night off were When We Were Wolves, who are loud and heavy...and unashamedly so. They are a complete contrast to the opening band Armstrong.

Taking myself on a day trip to Edinburgh I was excited to see Area 11 and their new songs live but, was a little disappointed to see the show be only a two band bill.
Midlands based Coast to Coast and Layover have just added dates to their August Tour.
After appearances at Reading and Leeds festivals this coming August, Modern Baseball will be hanging around a few days longer, with today's announcement of a handful of UK dates to compliment a short run of Irish shows.
Bristol-based Alt Rock trio Blank Atlas have released a new live video of them performing their song, Buried.
"Old songs like New Romantics had the crowd off their feet jumping around like bunnies on sherbet and it didn't stop after this. Happiness was a clear fan favourite and truly kick ass song. Great band".
Headliners tonight were Tigress and they came to the stage with a flurry of energy! They got the hair on the back of my head standing on end. I couldn't help but notice their bassist was missing but they made up for it with pure energy...
The two bands will be starting up in Liverpool and ending in Camden. Their appearances include spots at "Live It Up" festival in Northampton and shows with fellow UK Pop Punk bands On The Open Road, Tigerstyle, All These Years and Better Than Never.
